“Monotony collapses time. Novelty unfolds it.”

“To seek contentment is to release the novelty that lies within monotony”

“Monotony collapses time; novelty unfolds it. You can exercise daily and eat healthily and live a long life, while experiencing a short one. If you spend your life sitting in a cubicle and passing papers, one day is bound to blend unmemorably into the next - and disappear. That's why it's so important to change routines regularly, and take vacations to exotic locales, and have as many new experiences as possible that can serve to anchor our memories. Creating new memories stretches out psychological time, and lengthens our perception of our lives.”

“There is no time for cut-and-dried monotony. There is time for work. And time for love. That leaves no other time.”

“I say if a novelty Christmas song is funny one time, then it is funny every time. - Calvin”

“The work of memory collapses time.”
